    Typically in downhill you put squares of very grippy tape where your individual feet will go. Some people use a variety of different grips depending on how they ride

Angle grinders are the most dangerous hand power tool period because even the smallest mistakes can lead to gruesome injuries. Like so aaron can see this

    Downhill Skater here: Hardcore is alright but LokTon or Gangster grip tape is the move for DH (lokton is my fav). SUPER SHARP. Ideally you get a really sharp knife and dont score it, cut through the bottom with the knife facing up at an angle. We like our rails sharp af. Accompanied with a torque block and a footstop, maybe a few machine screws coming through the bottom, ultimate grip set up.

    We had this 25 grit per inch grip tape back in the 70s. The biggest issue was with your front foot after pushing, rotating your front foot would eat up the one sole. I would go to a big box store and load two right shoes into the box. Mismatched Chucks became my fashion contribution in high school.

    I bought some kicks at Walmart for $15 2 days ago. Then I bought another pair. For walking around they are the 💣. Skating they would last maybe 2 hours.
